Frontiers of Screen History

provides an insightful exploration into the depiction and imagination of European borders in cinema after the Second World War. While films have explored national and political borders, they have also attempted to identify, challenge and imagine frontiers of another kind: social, ethnic, religious and gendered. The book investigates all these perspectives. Its unique focus on the representation of European borders and frontiers via film is groundbreaking, opening up a new field of research and scholarly discussion. The exceptional variety of national and cultural perspectives provides a rewarding investigation of borders and frontiers.
